I had a conversation last weekend about our lieutenant governor's decision to sue the United States of America concerning the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Public Law No: 111-148.
I am glad he is suing. He may have valid point. However, I am also scared his lawsuit will destroy the Missouri Democratic Party, the Democratic National Committee and the Obama administration.
Peter Kinder, joined by the three other citizens, is not the only player in this field. At least 14 states are suing the federal government, calling the reform provision a violation of amendments 9 and 10 of the Constitution. Kinder is not suing on behalf of Missouri, but as a private individual.
Kinder is doing what every citizen has the right to do: addressing his grievances against the government for an act he feels is unconstitutional. I think it is great and cannot fault him for doing it. Yes, he is trying to make nice with the right-wing radicals and may be setting himself up for the next gubernatorial race, but he is doing something in the process, bringing the issue of health care back on the table.
Yes, I am supporting Kinder's right to file such an action. However, we cannot lose the little reform we have gained.
Knowing the health insurance industry as well as I do, I can say two things concerning the future effects of health care reform:
- Insurance companies are in business to make money, not to provide social services like bandaging your boo-boos, and
- even with the new "reforms," the health insurance industry will find a way to rip off the consumer.
As of Monday, Kinder's filing was being challenged by Attorney General Chris Koster, who says that Kinder may have filed a portion of the complaint under his official title rather than a private citizen.
Yet, I am more concerned about Prop C and if it is a calculated attack to put the Obama administration in a truly no-win situation.
This Aug. 3 ballot issue reads, "Shall the Missouri Statutes be amended to: Deny the government authority to penalize citizens for refusing to purchase private health insurance or infringe upon the right to offer or accept direct payment for lawful health care services? Modify laws regarding the liquidation of certain domestic insurance companies?"
This is a states' rights issue and one that I believe Missouri cannot win. Article VI, Clause 2, the Supremacy Clause, says that federal law is the supreme law of the land.
If the United States Supreme Court rules that Public Law No: 111-148 is constitutional, and if Proposition C passes and is found invalid, the anti-federalist movements will have the boost they have been looking for. The president and all Democrats, progressives and liberals will have no place to go but out. The tea party movement and neo-conservatives will have enough ammunition to not only defeat the liberal and progressive movements in the 2010, '11 and '12 elections, but possibly for decades.
I am afraid the president has not played this one well. As soon as Obama thinks he has his opponents and detractors in "check" in that great chess game of politics, his opponents have him at "mate." It is a no-win situation.
As a twist to Koster's actions against Kinder, the Attorney General's Office is representing the legislature by defending it against a lawsuit seeking to remove Prop C from the ballot. The issue was heard by the Cole County District Court (Case number 10ac-cc00413) on Tuesday. As of this writing, a disposition has not been made.
It is the Great Conservative Battle Plan. The passage of Proposition C and similar referendums around the country may ring the political death knell for Obama and company. We have heard little concerning this issue and if the Democrats do not say something now, loud and clear, they will be in trouble.
On Aug. 4, I hope we will be talking about a victory and not planning a wake.

Social Question
Ever wonder what would've happened if different words were said?
Asked by remambermee (442
October 21st, 2010
I definitely do. I find myself thinking 'what if' a lot and think back on what I've said. Sometimes I wish I knew what to say right at the moment instead of coming up with cheap on the spot answers. I'm the kind that needs time to come up with what I'm trying to say and it sucks when I don't get that time.

PRAYER as explained to
mankind by Abd-ru-shin
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS OF GOD as explained to mankind by Abd-ru-shin
X. Thou shalt not
covet thy neighbor's house, nor his farm, nor his cattle, nor anything
that is his!
The entire unaltered Original 1931
Edition of Abdruschin's "IN THE LIGHT OF TRUTH: THE GRAIL MESSAGE"
has now been posted online in 7 languages:
IN ENGLISH: http://www.abdrushin.us/in-the-light-of-truth/ IN THE ORIGINAL GERMAN: http://www.abdrushin.eu/im-lichte-der-wahrheit/ IN FRENCH: http://www.fr.abdrushin.name/dans-la-lumiere-de-la-verite/ IN PORTUGUESE: http://www.br.abdrushin.name/na-luz-da-verdade/ IN RUSSIAN: http://www.abdrushin.ru/v-svete-istiny/ IN CZECH: IN SLOVAKIAN: ***** A NOTE ON TRANSLATIONS: All translations have been done according to the sense of
the original German text ("IM LICHTE DER WAHRHEIT: GRALSBOTSCHAFT"). In
the translation the expressions and sentences used by Abdruschin to
mediate the Living Word to the human spirit can only be rendered
approximately. The reader should therefore realise that a translation
cannot replace the original. However, if he makes the effort - as is
desired by the Author - to absorb the contents intuitively, he will
recognise the significance of this Work for mankind, despite the
deficiences arising out of a translation.
The Author recommends that the
book "IN THE LIGHT OF TRUTH: THE GRAIL MESSAGE" be read
in sequence and in its entirety. The Knowledge of Creation,
contained therein, cannot be grasped by selective reading of individual
As every work reveals the inner
essence of its author, so the special nature of Abdruschin's personality
can be clearly discerned by every serious and objective
After the initial reading, you may wish to purchase a new English translation of it at http://www.lulu.com/content/4927185 or the original German and a few other languages at http://www.editionbernhardt.com. The English translation of the 2 volumes of the "Echoes/Resonances To the Grail Message" is presently in preparation. These volumes are meant only for those, who have already absorbed the content of the Grail Message and who are now striving to bring this Knowledge to life within themselves and in their daily lives. Those of us, who have already read The Grail Message and have recognized Its great significance for mankind, continue to delve deeper and deeper into this treasure-chest of Spiritual Knowledge on a daily basis. To this end, we often pick individual lectures out of sequence in order to elucidate for ourselves this or that particular aspect of Creation's weaving. For this purpose only, our website will continue to provide the Audio MP3 version of the 3-volume composite edition (as there is no Audio version of the Original 1931 Edition. It is also possible to program your MP3 player to play the lectures in the sequence of the 1931 edition. Of course, this won't replace the deletions and the missing lectures, but it will at least approximate the right order.) The 3-volume composite edition of The Grail Message is still the Word, but in a mutilated form.(For an explanation read our DECLARATION). IN MP3 AUDIO (to order

Published on Resilience (http://www.resilience.org)Peak oil notes - April 10
Published by ASPO-USA on 2014-04-10Original article: http://aspousa.org/ by Tom Whipple
Oil prices continued have continued to climb this week and are now $3-4 a barrel higher than at the beginning of April. New York oil futures closed Wednesday at $103.60 a barrel, only $4.38 below London futures which closed at $107.98. Falling gasoline stocks in the US and a weaker dollar contributed to the increase in NY prices, while uncertainty about the Ukrainian and Libyan situations supported London oil prices.
As expected the reopening of the Houston Ship Channel resulted in a jump in US imports and higher US crude inventories. The surprising developments in the weekly stocks report was a 5.1 million barrel drop in US gasoline inventories and the first increase in 12 weeks of the stocks at Cushing, Okla. that have been steadily draining away to storage facilities along the Gulf Coast. Stocks along the coast are now at an all-time high of 202 million barrels and may not be in a position to accept much more oil from Cushing until a way is found to ease the glut.
Only 13 US owned and crewed tankers out of a global inventory of 2,400 are legally allowed to move oil between US ports and these are fully booked. The 1975 Act forbids exports of crude except to Canada so the glut along the coast may remain until more refineries come back online from maintenance and begin to produce more oil products for the US market and for export. Some are already predicting that the new glut will increase the WTI/Brent spread to $13 a barrel soon from the current $5 a barrel. The coastal oil glut is increasing pressure on Congress to change the law and permit crude exports despite the 7 million b/d that the US is currently importing. It is generally recognized that oil producers would gain if US crude can be sold at world prices and refiners and consumers would lose.
Natural gas traders are split was to whether the industry will be able to refill the US storage caverns in time for next winter. Analysts expect there will be a small increase in US inventories in this week's inventory report as last week was relatively mild, but more cold weather is forecast for the next two weeks so that the winter drawdown in gas stocks might not be over until nearly May this year. After that, summer temperatures, the rate of natural gas production and what happens next winter will determine whether natural gas comes into short supply.
Overseas the return of Libyan exports is still up in the air. Only one of four shuttered export terminals has been turned over to the government and this cannot start loading crude until Sunday at the earliest. The Libyan situation is still far from over. Both sides in the Iranian nuclear talks report progress although the US has banned the new Iranian ambassador to the UN from entering the country and there is considerable concern about the deal that Moscow and Tehran are said to be cooking up to help Iran avoid the oil sanctions.
The usual bombings continue in Iraq while Baghdad announced that there will be no parliamentary voting on April 30th in those parts of Anbar province that have been seized by Sunni insurgents and clashes with security forces continue.
Nigerian oil exports for May will be down to about 1.6 million b/d from the high of 2.2 million reached in 2011 due to various acts of sabotage and oil theft that are plaguing the industry. A major gasoline shortage continues in the country.

A mountain and a lack of sleep
Trip Start
Jul 12, 2006
Trip End
Aug 23, 2006
I need to add a note to my previous entry (it�s probably not significant to anyone but me and Eric Adamson): my hostel is located on a street where EVERY shop is a barber shop. I�m not sure how the market supports this (there are at least 12 on the block). This also means that business is usually slow, so every time I walked to my hostel I would get calls of �Pase, pase� (�Come in, come in�). Apparently they thought my beard (which was puffing by then) didn�t look good. I finally caved in on Friday night and let a barber trim my beard. I don�t get told to come in as much anymore.
Anyhow, I spend Saturday and Sunday climbing Huayna Potos�, a 6088-meter mountain just outside of La Paz. I booked the climb with an agency that told me that doing the climb in two days is normal, as opposed to the three day option, where you spend a day getting acclimatized and practicing with your ice axe and crampons on a glacier. When I got to the base camp I discovered that I was the only person there doing the two-day option, which I also discovered meant no practicing with ice axes and crampons. I�d have to list myself as �novice� (�Zero, nothing, whatever the system is.�) when it comes to using things such as these. But no matter, I learned as I went and I think I used them correctly (there are only so many things you can do with an ice axe, especially when you�re climbing a mountain).
We got to the base camp (4750m I think) where I had lunch and repacked my backpack with climbing gear (snow pants, snow jacket, big mittens, crampons, etc.). I then hiked from base camp to the refuge (5200m), where I met up with the group I�d be climbing with. They had spent the previous day practicing on the glacier and the previous night sleeping at base camp. We hung out for a little bit and ate again before going to bed around 6:30pm. From then until 12:30am I spent my time in my sleeping bag trying to sleep, but to no avail. I occupied the time by clearing my throat whenever someone started snoring (there were two snorers), covering my face with my sleeping bag to protect myself from the dripping ceiling, monitoring my acclimatization status, and gasping for breath every 15 seconds or so when for some reason I would forget to breath. I think it was the altitude.
We woke up at 12:30am and left around 2. Our group of 5 had three guides, and I was paired with a German named Matheus. Our guide�s name was Felix. We climbed for about 4.5 hours and summited just before the sun broke the horizon. The climb wasn�t very difficult except for the last 200m, which was something like a 60-degree slope of ice with a little snow and required use of the ice axe. I feel comfortable saying that it was one of the hardest physical activities I�ve undertaken, but at no point did I feel that my body could not continue. I also feel that it would have been much easier had I chosen the three-day option, but being on the crunched schedule that I am, it was worth it.
After climbing back down and riding in a jeep back to La Paz, I was ready for some sleep (I had been awake for around 30 hours). But then I remembered that there was a soccer game between The Strongest and Bol�var. Not only are they two of Bolivia�s best teams, they are both based in La Paz. So I showered and caught a bus to the stadium. The game was exciting and mostly well-played (a little sloppy), and the fans from both sides were great. Despite my nearly falling asleep a few times, I enjoyed the game.
I finally got some sleep (about 12 hours) last night, and I bought the bus ticket for Uyuni this morning. Anyway, that�s about it for now. I�m off to get ready for the bus and get some food.

So, as we approach the question of "when should I prune my fruit tree or shrub?" it is important to keep in mind that the answer likely differs based on where you live, the age of your plant, type of plant, disease and pest potentials, and more.
In climates that undergo a distinct period of winter dormancy, you'll find yourself doing a lot of pruning in the winter. Trees like apples and pears, shrubs like blueberries, and cane-growers like raspberries are generally pruned in winter while the plants are experiencing dormancy.
Dormancy refers to the state plants enter when sunlight shines weakly and briefly each day and when the weather is harsh, cold and windy. To prepare for these harsh conditions, many edible fruiting plants drop their leaves in autumn and persist through winter bare to the bark. Once plants have shed their leaves and the chance of warm weather has passed, pruning season is open – from around the end of November until the early weeks in March, varying somewhat by region.
Pruning while plants are dormant – particularly deciduous plants - is relatively easy because the branches are laid bare. There are no pesky leaves to get in the way, so figuring out which branches are dead or suckering or rubbing or broken is much simpler. Tackle those first and get them out of the way. Then you'll easily see the best remaining structure of your plants.
Remember: Don't tackle your dormant pruning jobs on days when the temperatures have dipped to at or below the freezing mark. During a freeze, it is easy to badly damage plants while pruning.
When trimming fruit trees like apples, cherries and pears, take a look at the stems up close. Fruit will form on the stubby little branches you see forming all along mature branches; these are called "spurs". If you remove spurs, you will remove your plant's fruiting potential. Also, if you remove too many young, spur-less branches, you will reduce the number of future spurs the tree may form. In most cases, trees like these will send out new branches each spring. These new branches – called vegetative growth – are unlikely to form any fruiting spurs in their first year of growth. However, in the following year that vegetative growth is likely to sprout some new fruiting spurs. Determining how much new vegetative growth to remove each year quickly reminds gardeners that pruning is both a science and an art form. If in doubt, try to keep the volume you remove from your tree to no more than 25%. Too, keep in mind that fruiting branches closest to the ground will be the easiest to harvest. The ones high up in the tree may end up going to the birds or require special equipment to pick.
Before you decide to do your entire fruit pruning in winter – ahead of the growth surge, be sure to check with your local fruit societies or nurseries to find out if there are any disease issues of concern. In the Pacific Northwest, for instance, fungal infections that spread readily in splashing water plague peach, plum, cherry and apricot trees. And, it is easy for gardeners to pick up the fungal spores on their wet pruning shears and spread the disease around the tree. For this reason, many choose to prune these trees when it is dry in mid-summer. Yes, it is harder to see what you're doing, but making cuts when it is dry can make the difference in having a healthy tree or not.

Want to get better pollination? Putting up an Orchard Mason Bee box may make all the difference. Getting your supplies in winter and putting them out in the garden while the tree is dormant should help these fruit tree lovers hatch and forage your trees just at the right time!

Question for European fans
OK, I am in Spain and will be here for the entire month of September. Obviously the Texans will not be on over here. Actually I can't even watch Real Madrid over here, every decent sporting event is pay per view over here. I know, I know I should have bought a Slingbox, woulda, shoulda, coulda. If any of you guys stream the Texans games from this side of the pond send me a PM (please don't post links on this public forum). I know of a few good sites however haven't tested them for NFL football. Thanks.

Re: Question for European fans
I tend to just listen to the Texans game live on NFL radio while I watch the game that we have given to us on TV by our network. I then download the game a few days later from the internet when it comes available, I usually have the game watched by wednesday.
On the other hand there is that offer from NFL.com that allows you to watch the games, I think its something like $15 a game or something like that. What I would suggest depending on where abouts you are in Spain is that if you can't find any Football find a bar that shows Sky Sports, thats where we see our coverage over here there is one of the 1pm games, one of the 4:15pm games and then Sunday Night Football. Let me know how you get on with it all dude, where are you in Spain? I was out there not long ago in Valencia. |

Email: rohlik(at)gmail.comPhone: +420377632450 (Office)Research Area(s): General neuroinformaticsResearch focus: We are experimenting with meassuring and assessing drivers' vigilance, especially after many hours of driving. In particular we analyze the level of driver's drowsiness by measuring brain electrical activity during the driving. One of the challenges is to obtain valid real-world data. Hence, we approach this challenge by using advanced simulation environment and specialized set of scenarios developed specifically to simulate long-distance driving. We managed to keep the vehicle control simple enough not to distract the subject. Then the monotonous drive may be interrupted by sudden events (people crossing roads and cars or obstacles suddenly appearing in front of the car). Our primary goal is to analyze the EEG activity before, while, and after such events. We have arrived to a simulation platform where subjects experience immersive virtual reality. Our state-of-the-art system is available for experiments involving wide range of traffic situation. This is made possible by adapted version of VBS2 professional tool which allows us to control the simulation either through scripted events or manually by an operator. Recently we mastered the communication between simulation software and EEG recording device which enable us precise meassurements and subsequent analysis. We are interested in colaboration on this and similar topics.Profile updated 2008-11-19 View profile page

Cheese from Holland
2616 Views
The Dutch produce 650 million kilos of cheese every year. Two third is exported, which makes Holland the largest cheese exporter in the world. On average the Dutch eat 14,3 kilos of cheese per person per year. No wonder Holland has a worldwide reputation for being a cheese country.
Dutch Cheese Brands
The most popular cheeses from Holland are Gouda and Edam. There are many other types of Dutch cheese, however, such as: Frisian, Limburger, Kernhem, Bluefort, Subenhara, Maasdam, Old Amsterdam, Old Alkmaar, Mimolette Commission, Maasland, Texelaar-Kollumer, Leyden and Leerdammer.
History of Dutch Cheese
The Dutch association with cheese dates back to pre-Christian times. Archaeologists have found remains of cheese-making equipment dating back to 200 B.C. By the Middle Ages, making and trading cheese had assumed a central position in Dutch life. Cheese markets flourished and towns that were granted weighing rights were able to build Weigh Houses and enjoyed special status. De Waag in Gouda is one of the most beautiful weigh houses in Holland. From that time on, Holland further developed as a world leader in the dairy industry.
Dutch Cheese Markets
See how sellers and wholesalers do business as they have for 600 years at a cheese market in the cheese capitals Gouda, Edam and Alkmaar. The latter is also home to a cheese museum. You can also go to one of the numerous cheese shops in Holland and enjoy and compare the different flavors of cheese.
